QuantumCT Overview

QuantumCT is a public-private partnership accelerating the adoption of quantum technologies in Connecticut and beyond. QuantumCT, the nonprofit organization that serves as the statewide coordinating body for advancing quantum technologies and convening industry and early-stage innovators, academia, and the public sector. QuantumCT is the result of a landmark partnership between Yale University and the University of Connecticut that was launched in response to the National Science Foundation’s Regional Innovation Engines program. Yale and UConn are also working in partnership with the state to advance Connecticut’s quantum ecosystem.

In March 2025, Al Green was appointed Chief Executive Officer at QuantumCT.

The Quantum Technology Market

The United Nations has designated 2025 the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, celebrating 100 years since the initial development of quantum mechanics. McKinsey research in 2025 illustrates quantum computing, quantum communication, and quantum sensing could together generate up to $97 billion in revenue worldwide by 2035.

• Quantum computing could be worth $28 billion to $72 billion, quantum communication could be worth $11 billion to $15 billion, and quantum sensing could be worth $7 billion to $10 billion—for a total of as much as $97 billion.
• McKinsey predicts that by 2040, the total QT market could reach $198 billion.

Quantum Technology will affect many industries, the chemicals, life sciences, financial services, and mobility industries will see the most growth. Private and public investors are increasingly confident that Quantum Technology start-ups will generate measurable value; in 2024 investors poured nearly $2 billion into Quantum Technology start-ups worldwide, a 50 percent increase compared to $1.3 billion in 2023.

Connecticut’s Investment in Quantum Technology

In November 2025, Governor Lamont announced new investments in Connecticut’s quantum technology infrastructure, workforce, and research capacity – a keystone moment in the state’s plan to fully capitalize on the economic opportunities created by next-generation technologies. The State of Connecticut pledged $121 million to QuantumCT. The funds will strengthen Connecticut’s already robust leadership in the emerging quantum economy by accelerating technology development, workforce training, and commercialization.

The investment will support the launch of the QuantumCT incubator, a fully functional deep-tech hub in New Haven. This first-of-its-kind facility will combine co-working and lab space with engineering and materials characterization capabilities, quantum testbeds, and onsite technical expert.

• UConn has embraced quantum research for decades and has added state-of-the-art infrastructure to support its mission. In 2023, UConn opened major facilities aligned with quantum technologies, including the “Science 1” building on the main campus in Storrs. The facility offers highly advanced laboratories, including clean room facilities, needed to advance quantum materials and applied quantum research.
• Yale is investing in a new science and engineering complex to support initiatives in quantum science, engineering and materials research, instrumentation development, and the Yale Quantum Institute. The Upper Science Hill Development complex is one of the largest capital commitments in Yale’s history, totaling more than 600,000 gross square feet.
